CITY OF OCONOMOWOC - The city will be changing the location of the District No. 2 polling site starting with the Feb. 20 spring primary election.

Voting in District No. 2 was being held at Fire Station No. 1, 212 S. Concord Road, but starting in 2018 it will be at the Oconomowoc Community Center, 220 W. Wisconsin Ave.

Directional signs will be placed at the fire station and community center to help guide voters who are unaware of the change. Parking for the community center is across the street in the parking campus and at city beach.

There are some handicap/elderly street parking spots in front of the community center’s main entrance. Voting will take place on the lower level.

There are stairs and an elevator inside to get voters to the lower level. If voters park at City Beach, the sidewalk leads to the lower level entrance.

According to City Clerk Diane Coenen, it was always the intention of the city to move voting back to the community center once it was built and parking was installed.

Facilitating the voting process in the community center allows the fire department to move about freely in the event of a fire or ambulance call as well as provides more space for the voters and election workers as they navigate through the voting process.
